How is Green Chilli used in Thai cooking?

This long green chili - prik mum, close to the Anaheim - looks like an oversized jalapeño and can reach nearly eight inches. It's milder and more fragrant than the fiery little bird's eye, which is exactly why it matters: it's the chili that gives green curry paste its colour and its green, grassy heat without blowing the dish apart. We pound it into the paste seeds and all, or hold some back to dial the spice up or down to taste.
